Sushi Nakazawa

You're here for Nakazawa's nigiri, but the wine list quietly demands your attention before the first piece lands. It's tight — maybe 150 to 200 bottles — but it reads like someone made deliberate, considered choices rather than just filling pages. Champagne and Burgundy dominate, and honestly, that's exactly right for what's happening on the plate.

This list isn't trying to cover the world — it's staking a claim in two regions and owning them. The Burgundy section runs from approachable village-level bottles up to Domaine Leroy Chambolle-Musigny and Henri Jayer Vosne-Romanée, which tells you someone here takes this seriously. Champagne gets similar treatment: Krug Grande Cuvée, Salon Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil, Billecart-Salmon Blanc de Blancs, and Cristal cover the prestige end well, while Schramsberg at $95 gives you a domestic on-ramp. The gaps are real — if you want Rhône, Alsace, or anything Italian, you're largely out of luck — but the depth within those two French pillars earns a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence for a reason.

By-the-glass options land somewhere between 10 and 20 pours, with entry points around $18 to $25 — reasonable for this zip code and this room. The program skews toward Champagne and white Burgundy by the glass, which is smart given the omakase format. Wednesday half-price wine night is a genuine incentive to plan around.
